Mevlana - Konya

While the location of the Mevlana Lodge, which is used as a museum today, was the Rose Garden of the Seljuk Palace, the garden was gifted to Mevlana's father, Sultanü'l-Ulema Bahaeddin Veled, by Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad. When Sultanü'l-Ulemå died on January 12, 1231, he was buried in its present place in the tomb. This is the first burial in the rose garden. After Sultanü'l-Ulema's death, those who loved him applied to Mevlâna and said that they wanted to build a tomb over his father's grave, but Mevlâna refused this request, saying, "Is there a better tomb than the sky dome?"
